wolfy dog

Regarding WD; he is 11 months old, nice stable (no OCD) drive, intact and good with all dogs. He came with a solid foundation at 10 weeks from his breeder. I have managed and worked my butt off to get him through puppy hood without being attacked /scared by dogs or crazy people. And his obedience skills are 100% (clicker training!!!). I don't have words to describe him accurately. Love that big guy.

Lauri & The Gang

Teaching my girl Neke to pick up and bring me just about anything after the trainer I had been using screwed her up SO bad that she would cringe, cry and pee in fear of the dumbbell and the words 'Take It'. It took almost 6 months but she finally did start to enjoy those words!

Teaching Mauser not to be afraid of gunshots after I screwed him up by forcing him to watch fireworks that were going off right behind our house (and that was during one of his fear periods). He had been to several gun clubs with us prior to the incident and even sat and watch a man demonstrate a black powder gun (VERY loud) and had NO problems. We got lots of compliments on his temperament. After the fireworks incident he became afraid of thunder and lightening and gunshots. I used a combination of his balls and lure coursing to get him over the gunshot and thunder fears. These were both critical because we live next to a shooting range and we get alot of storms. We are still working on the fireworks part.

If I could ever have something back in life it would be "Rocky", but I am thankful because my children are doing good

I'm most proud of our first place in team obedience at the Wisconsin State Fair this past year. It's a ribbon only 3 other dogs (my teammates) received this year so its really cool. Wish I could've gone with them to nationals (where they won as well) but hopefully next year we get to do that in Philly.

My biggest accomplishment with Koda was when she, after months of working on reactivity, took in an entire litter of puppies and actually protected them from their mother (who was trying to attack/maul them all- that dog was MESSED up in the head from day one). She even followed through and "helped" me nurse them. It was the proudest moment everrr!
